• INFINEON WEAKNESS: Somewhat surprisingly, I’ve had a significant amount of inbound asking why Infineon shares

are under pressure (-3%) and lagging the broader analogue group. It feels as though, over the last few months, the market

has become increasingly focused on the AI-related growth vectors and, to some extent, forgotten that automotive still
